1950s Pale Blue Bird Print Pencil Dress With Waterfall Sleeves
Made in the UK
A pale blue bird print pencil dress with a vintage inspired V neckline, short kimono sleeves and a fitted knee-length wiggle silhouette.
Elegant, feminine and striking, this vintage inspired pencil dress brings 1940s and 1950s glamour to modern occasionwear. The pale blue base is decorated with an oriental-inspired bird, branch and floral print, featuring hummingbirds, blossom-style flowers, foliage and tree branches in teal, green, purple, navy, orange, yellow, cream and brown tones.
The deep V neckline and wrap-effect bodice create a flattering shape, while the wide waistband defines the waist before the dress falls into a fitted pencil skirt. Short loose kimono-style sleeves add soft arm coverage and graceful vintage inspired styling. Finished with a centre back zip fastening, this knee-length wiggle dress is ideal for weddings, garden parties, race days, cocktail events and smart summer occasions.
